<![CDATA[The present study discusses the need to improve social intelligence character in elementary schools, which has so far been limited to lecture-based methods and not integrated into formal learning. The study aims to develop a reading book on the civilization of building houses based on Project-Based Learning (PjBL) to foster children's social intelligence character. This research employs the ADDIE research and development (RnD) model, which follows five phases namely, analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The study was conducted in Kalasan, Yogyakarta. The research findings are that 1) the development of the reading book was successfully carried out in a structured manner according to the ADDIE stages, 2) the quality of the reading book falls into the "very good" category (average score of 3.89 on a 1-4 scale) and requires no revision, and 3) the implementation of the reading book has a significant impact on children's social intelligence character (p < 0.05). The magnitude of the impact indicates a "large effect" (r = 0.9960 or equivalent to 99.21%). The effectiveness level of the book's implementation is relatively high (N-Gain Score of 99.12%).]]>
